Weaknesses
- Anticipation is essential: healing over time does not restore all health immediately. A late reaction can put an ally in danger.
- Mana management: keeping several heals active at once consumes a lot of mana.
- Limited group healing at level 30: Wild GrowthRestoration · Row 7 · 1 rankInstant · 6 sec cooldown · Duration 7 secRequires: Living Spirit (3 ranks)Heals the target and its party members within 43.5 yards for 336 over 7 seconds; the healing is fast at first, then slows down. requires 31 points in the specialization and is therefore not available at level 30.
- Incomplete support: despite its heals and dispels, the Druid does not have all the utility abilities of other classes.
